joining us right now is columnist michael goodwin. he won the pulitzer prize and also voted for barak obama because in the beginning, you were sold on that, weren't you? >> i loved that idea. i still love that idea. i still believe that is what this country needs is to think bigger. you look at washington, it's polarized. the country is polarized. barak obama, however, has made it worse. >> in what way? >> i think he's a partisan. he's an ideological partisan and we see it on everything. obamacare being the biggest example where no republican ideas, no republican votes. only straight party line vote. you see it with the senate changing the rules to limit republican power. he's all for that. so this is a president who talks about uniting the country, but when push comes to shove, he only chooses one side of every argument and therefore, the country is more divided as a result of his presidency than it was before. >> i can't tell you how many times i've heard people say, it seems like he's pitting one part of america against the other.

maryland, one of the first states to jump right on the obama care bandwagon. the rollout sputed along over the past nine weeks. they've only enrolled about 3,000 residents in the whole state of marry land. a very, very blue state. >> roughly 700 people have been able to enroll over the last week or so. they are saying -- >> maybe she'll get her job back. >> an improvement. right. maybe it will be a paid vacation kind of things. it doesn't sound like it. there have been calls for people like kathleen sebelius to lose her job. the president has yet to hold anything accountable at the federal level. we spoke with governor mike huckabee and he says the president is out of the loop and he needs to learn how to manage. >> i think people need to realize as bad as the website is, and it's clearly been a train wreck, it's nothing compared to what happens when people finally get into obama care and now we're learning that, for example, in states like washington state, nine times more people signed up for medicaid than to pay for insurance. good managers understand you s

it's a direction, unfortunately, that the obama administration is leading us right now, and i'm convinced its a mistake. the house of representatives has a responsibility, as part of a co-equal branch of government. we have worked and passed sanctions that are robust and dynamic, that aren't taken up by the false claim of the iranians, false promise of future conduct. we need our colleagues on the other side of the rontonda to take on a rigorous sanctions bill and push back very, very aggressively, because here are the thing, the iranians are allowed to enrich. there are no investigations as it relates to the warheads or their missile capacity. so what's happening? the iranians gain an advantage of time and money, we squander both. this is a time when the united states needs to be clear and not ambiguous. so there are members who are gathered here today, mr. speaker, to talk about the seriousness of this issue, to admonish the administration and encourage them to change course and we hope to highlight the significant nature of the shift in american foreign policy that we are seeing laid o
